Re: Hah! DIY, baby!

yeah, that'll free you of the limits of a cabinet, they're always 1.5" too small. guy i know, Hairball George told me he partitioned off the 1/2 part of his 2 1/2 car garage with plywood and that was his blast cabinet during a restoration project. i don't know if he actually went in there while balsting or had gloves and a window or what, i never saw the operation.

glancing at your link i caught the warning about routing the exhaust out of the space, sounds like a good idea, or are you going to run a recovery $ystem? you could build it outdoors and disguise it with a rabbit hutch on the backside.

another blasting system i am slightly familiar with used a recovery system indoors in a garage shop, there was some dust and sand about. not rediculous but it was the price of doing business, nothing compared to the parkerizing fumes. when that compressor fried they upgraded to a real nice screw type compressor/drier system.
